SPEAKING - Part 4 By Frankie Bull
PART
IV – 1966 PWLLEHELI Wendy and I were married in 1967 and now have four children, in their early 40’s and late 30’s, plus 8 grandkids. I am still a Redcoat at heart and have lived my entire life as a Redcoat. I have never forgotten Butlins and the friends I made. Wendy and I are still in touch with fellow Red’s who have been friends for over 40 years.
Wendy and I were married in 1967 and now have four children, in their early 40s and late 30s, plus eight grandkids. I am still a Redcoat at heart and have lived my entire life as a Redcoat. I have never forgotten Butlins and the friends I made. Wendy and I are still in touch with fellow Red’s who have been friends for over 40 years.
Butlins was and always will be a significant part of my life. If I could turn back the clock I would gladly do it all again. Wendy and I visited Pwllheli Camp (by then Haven) in 2000 and I commented on the attitude of some of the Haven entertainent staff. A little Welsh guy on the main gate summed it up for me, in words I will never, ever, forget. He said, “I’ll tell you what, boyo, these people ‘ere wouldn’t ‘old a candle to a real Butlin Redcoat.” They were good days and we were special people. Frankie Bull
